Hi,
is there a way to pass nfs mount options to the kernel via bootp ?
I notice that the system defaults to very large blocksizes,
which causes a lot of IP fragmentation and lots of trouble
when going through a bottleneck.

You can set the mount options through fstab, but before getting
there you need to access the root filesystem...

	cheers
